CINPART PLC

('Cinpart' or the 'Company')

Reduction of Share Premium Account, Cancellation of Deferred Shares and Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting

Cinpart (AIM:CINP), the electrical products manufacturer and supplier, is pleased to announce that it is today posting a circular to shareholders convening an Extraordinary General Meeting ('EGM') at which it will be proposed that the Company's share premium account be reduced and that the Company's Deferred Shares of 0.49p and 9.5p be cancelled in order to create sufficient reserves to eliminate the Company's accumulated losses of £5,599,643, which existed as at 31 December 2008 ("the Proposals").

The purpose of the EGM is to seek shareholder approval to the Proposals to permit the share capital of the Company to be reduced by £5,599,643 and its retained losses as at 31 December 2008 to be reduced to £nil. The reduction in share capital will also be required to be approved by the High Court and an application will be made to the High Court immediately following the EGM, provided that the resolutions are passed.

By reducing the retained losses as at 31 December 2008 to £nil to the extent that profits are generated by the Company in the period following that date, the Company can consider the distribution of future profits earlier than otherwise would be the case, and in so doing provide greater flexibility to commence dividend payments should the opportunity arise.

The EGM is to be held at 10a.m. on 17 November 2009 at 2/F, Berkeley Square House, London, W1J 6BD. 

The circular has been posted to shareholders today but is also available to download from the Company's website, www.cinpart.com.
